The idea of a strangers meeting and agreeing to commit a murder swap of their respective spouses is tantalizing. Patricia Highsmith and Alfred Hitchcock famously explored the idea in Strangers on a Train, which is the clear precursor to Tubi’s latest thriller, A Kill for a Kill, though the new film gender-and race-swaps the characters.
In director Dylan Vox’s film, Destiny (Meyon Jacobs) is a successful author and speaker. As we see her speak to a sold-out auditorium at a women’s empowerment weekend, her talk is intercut with scenes of Toni (Tristan Cunningham) experiencing domestic abuse by her husband Marcus (Tarek Zohdy). Toni has snuck away to attend “Take It Back” because Destiny’s career is centered on her own experience surviving and thriving in the wake of a sexual assault; both women believe in the message about fighting back and reclaiming your power.

[This story contains spoilers from the season two finale of Reasonable Doubt.]
Michael Ealy’s Reasonable Doubt character Damon Cooke seemingly rose from the dead in the Hulu legal drama’s season two finale. But his return was, as it turned out, only in the mind of series lead Jax Stewart (Emayatzy Corinealdi), who found herself playing an internal blame game when the realities of Lewis (McKinley Freeman) having a baby with another woman began to set in.
Jax’s train of thought isn’t totally off track, as her affair with Damon, as well as with a former co-worker, were the catalyst for the couple separating and Lewis sleeping with Toni (Tristan Cunningham), who loses their baby after going into labor early in the season two finale. At the end of season one, Jax’s romance with Damon took a dark turn when his possessiveness led him to kidnap the defense attorney and later commit suicide when authorities arrived to rescue her.

[This article contains spoilers from the season two finale of Reasonable Doubt.]
The case at the center of season two of Reasonable Doubt was deeply personal for Jax Stewart (Emayatzy Corinealdi) and her husband Lewis (McKinley Freeman). Jax not only found herself defending one of her closest friends, Shanelle (Shannon Kane), who was charged with first-degree murder in the death of her abusive husband Jt (Christopher Mychael Watson), but also questioning a witness on the stand who, unbeknownst to her at the time, was pregnant with her husband’s child. The revelation surprisingly manages to strengthen Jax and Lewis’ marriage — complements to couple’s therapy — and it’s a united front they’ll need to maintain after being served with papers alerting them that Toni (Tristan Cunningham) is suing the couple for the death of her and Lewis’ baby in the season finale.
“I think what really hurt her is that she thought Lewis and her would still have a bond,...

Warning: “Reasonable Doubt” Season 2 finale spoilers ahead.
“Reasonable Doubt” creator, executive producer and showrunner Raamla Mohamed unpacked the “raw” ending to Hulu/Onyx Collective’s hit legal drama’s second season, and the dramatic cliffhanger that sets up storylines for Season 3.
Fans can finally put their thumbs to rest and stop tweeting “free Shanelle,” as Jax Stewart’s (Emayatzy Corinealdi) bestie has officially been released from prison, thanks to District Attorney Lucy Wargo (Melissa Ponzio). Like last season, “Reasonable Doubt” didn’t hold back.
With domestic and intimate partner violence awareness being one of the focal points of Season 2’s messaging, trigger warnings were shown ahead of each episode. However, a much lengthier caution preceded Episode 10: “Encore,” which starts by showing the brutal altercation between Shanelle (Shannon Kane) and Jt in its entirety for the first time: no music, just dialogue. The sequence closes out to reveal Jt’s...
